Question

A 3-quart carton of fruit punch costs $5.88. What is the price per cup?

Answer 1

A 3-quart carton is equivalent to 12 cups (1 quart = 4 cups).

Therefore, the price per cup is calculated by dividing the total cost of the carton by the number of cups:

Price per cup = Total cost / Number of cups

Price per cup = $5.88 / 12

Price per cup = $0.49

Therefore, the price per cup is $0.49.

Answer 2

$ 0.49

Explanation:

There are 4 cups in a quart, therefore, we time 3 by 4:

3x4 = 12

To find the price per cup, we divide 5.88 by 12:

5.88/12 = $0.49
